Bloomsburg University faculty,
staff , and students are now able to
purchase personal microcomputers at a discount rate of 30 to 50
percent through the Ben Franklin
Partnership Consortium with
Lehigh University 's Advanced
Technology Center. BU has signed
an agreement with the Northeast
Teir Advanced Technology Center
(NET-ATC ) to make this special
opportunity possible.

For example, a set of IBM personal computers with accessories
like enhanced CPU, disc storage,
printer and monitor which ordinarily cost close to $9000 may
now be purchased for $6500. The
companies are offering a variety of
options at the same discount rate.
In additon to hardware, softwares are also being offered. One
additional advantage is the repair
service. By buying an annual service contract, equipment can be
serviced and repaired in this area .
The maintenance service is also
available without the contract.
The computers will be purchased
through the University Store. Two
persons from the store will be
oriented and trained to transact the
business of securing orders ,
pr ocessing, receiving and
delivering to the buyer.
A predelivery workshop and user
training program are also provided

United Nations

UNITED NATIONS - The
General Assembly voted on Nov.
11, for a third consecutive year to
condemn Israel for its 1981 attack
on an Iraqi nuclear reactor.
It called on Israel to renounce its
"threat" to attack and destroy
nuclear facilities "" in other countries. The resolution was approved
by a vote of 123-to-2, with 12 abenstentions. The United States was
the only country that joined Israel
in voting against it.

Lebanon

LEBANON - According to
"Newsweek," Lebanon was awash
in blood last week. To the North ,,
Syrian - backed Palestinian rebels
fought a ferocious, see-saw battle
with Yasir Arfat outside Tripoli. In

the East , Israeli warplanes
streaked over the Beka Valley, and
pounded Lebanese Shiite Muslims
believed responsible for last months truck - bomb attacks on the
United States, French, and Israeli
forces in Lebanon.
The next day French attacked
the same rebels, and then the
Israeli launched another air strike,
losing at least one plane.

Paris

PARIS - Arniost 15,000 physicists
from 43 countries have appealed
for a halt talk to the nuclear arms
race, citing the danger of a
holocaust that could kill 100 million
people.
The statement issued said some
50,000 nuclear weapons were
currently deployed, with a combined destructive power of about
one million times that qf the bomb
which wiped out Hiroshima.
It estimated that 100 million
people would be killed im-

mediately, "those who are only
wounded, burned, or radiated will
die following hours, days, or months without aid. Whoever survives
this period will helplessly face
epidemics, hunger, and violence,"
the statement said.
The petition signed by physicists
from the United States, and Soviet
Union as well as Eastern and
Western Europe, Japan, and
Austrialia is to be presented to the
United Nations and individual
governments.

Moscow

MOSCOW - Soviet leader Yuri V.
Andropov, announced last week the
deployment of seaborne missiles
against the United States. He said
the action would counter the threat
to his country which he said was
posed by new American missiles
being readied for basing in Western
Europe.

Guest Editorial by Ninette Friscia
Tenure. According to the present system . It is a professor 's guarantee
of a permanent teaching position. Although the tenure system must have
it's merits, it has faults that cannot be ignored.
One major problem with the system is that it operates on the assumption that "tenured in " professors will maintain high teaching standards
until they die or switch jobs (at which time they would lose tenure) . Of
course it is hoped that professors with tenure will continue to be qualified
teachers, but to depend upon this assumption is ludicrous. Professors are
human, and humans change. By guaranteeing permanent positions, the
present tenure system fails to take this human characteristic into consideration.

As a result, colleges are sometimes committed to retaining incompetent professors. Who are the victims of this flaw in the system?
Not the administration. Not the professors. The students. Repeatedly,
they are subjected to incompetent professors who use unfair policies.
When the students turn to administrations with complaints like, "My prof
said we were going to have a multiple choice test, but we had a short
essay instead," they get the answer "Nothing can be done about it. HeShe has tenure." What kind of system is this?
Another problem with the system is that as more professors get
"locked in" to teaching positions, fewer positions exist for younger
teachers. It's safe to say that those graduating with a degree in education
each year number many more than those leaving the profession. Isn't
this next generation of education entitled to a fair shake?
The present tenure system denies them this chance.
Third, according to Shirley Hufstedler, former secretary of education,
"Without the injection of young professors, existing faculties tend to
become stagnant. " It certainly doesn't seem possible that stagnation
could be Conducive to quality education . Once again, the students are the
victims of this system entrenched in incompetence.
Now is the time for this incompetence to stop. The problems of the
present tenure system must be recognized and acted upon by administrations. Shirley Hufstedler suggests an opening tenure of 10 years
with a right to renewed tenure every five years-as long as the professor
continued to be productive.
If this new tenure system were introduced, incompetent professors
would be eliminated, resulting in more job openings for younger
educators and less stagnation of faculties. The tenure system would no
longer represent a guarantee of permanent teaching positions but a
significant attempt at improving education instead. After all, quality
education is what our nation is striving for, isn't it?

Letters—
Baby-sitting
Students

Dear Editor,
This is in response to the letter
submitted by an anonymous instructor regarding the school's attendance policy (11—18—83) . Unfortunately, our omniscient
professor has abused his arguments upon a premise that I believe to
be in error. The purpose of the
University is not to "baby-sit" its
students, . but to provide an
education. Much of the instructor's
wording is ambiguous, so let me
clarify my statement.
Our professor begins by
discussing the law. , He states that
upon registering for a class* we

make a contract to attend that
class. However, when I paid my
tuition, I was under the impression
that I made a contract to be
educated in the areas defined by
the course description. I was also
led to believe that the grade determined by the professor was to be an
assessment of my knowledge on the
subject material-not my devotion
to the instructor 's "...sovereignty
in his class..." How we learn the
required material is our own
business. We pay you to provide
one alternative to us: lecture
(which in many cases teaches us
absolutely nothing) .
Professor Anonymous, do you
really think we have a screw loose,
or do you? • To compare classroom
attendance to work attendance is

both ludicrous and insulting, forget
not that you are our employees,
and if we have wasted our money
by not attending classes it is our
problem. A bold statement, indeed, but true none-the-less. When
the roles are reversed and we are
paid to perform our best, hopefully
we " will be able to emulate our
professors and give 100 percent of
our abilities to those who pay us.
(If our professors give 100 percent
to us that is).
So far , this letter has been harsh
and condemning. May I conclude
with a positive note to all of our
professors : Please, do not misunderstand me. T do not advocate
faculty apathy to.those -students

them . all of your support and en-

No Thanks

Dear Editor,
I just finished "Thanks" - giving
dinner at the commons. In contrast
to "S D.'s friend" beliefs, I felt the
service was horrible. Not only did it
take 20 minutes to get seated, but it
took another 15 minutes to receive
the food.
Also, when we asked for seconds
on practically everything except
the turkey, our waitress told us
there were none! Considering the
fact that everyone at our table
were men, I do not feel that one serving is very adequate. I later found
out that many other people had
received seconds. Why didn't we?
Maybe it was a lazy waitress or
simply the fact that they actually
did run out of food. Either way servomation was not doing their job.
The only good thing I can conjure
up is that the little food we did
receive was food.
Come On Servomation, get your
act together.
No 'thanks' for 'giving!

Thank You

Dear Students and Staff: '
The Bloomsburg Chapter, of the
American Red Cross wishes to use
this means to thank all the students
and staff of Bloomsburg University
of Pa for their outstanding display
of humanitarian concern for their
fellow human beings by sharing
their lifesaving fluid during our
recent two day bloodmobile drive
on campus.
Not only did you contribute to 639
pints of blood, but you also made
our day an enjoyable one by the attitude you displayed.
Red Cross would be totally
unable to perform its many services for persons in time ¦of need if
we did not have the support and
commitment of many groups and
individuals;
^ \ In my capacity as Executive

Director of the Bloomsburg Red
Cross that fact is brought to me
time and time again and the most
thrilling aspect of my job is to
discover the willingness of persons
to give of themselves.
Just to say "Thank You BUP"
seems almost inadequate but if you
understand the really deep
gratitude that comes with those
words then you are able to sense
our deep appreciation for your efforts in saving lives. You are a
great University and I want you to
know how we feel and that we are
proud to have BUP in our community.
Sincerely yours,
Darlene Weidner

Robbery
Thanksgiving break was a happy
occasion for most BU students, but
not for some unfortunate Delta Pi
brothers. The Delta Pi house was
robbed sometime between Wednesday evening and Friday night.
Greg Kleponis and his father
discovered the robbery Saturday
morning and immediately notified
the police.
The entry to the house was made
by breaking a window on the first
floor and splintering a door into an
apartment of four Delta Pi
brothers. Three stereo systems
were stolen out of this apartment
that were estimated at $3,500. A
window to a third floor apartment
was broken into and another stereo
system, estimated at $400, was
stolen.
A leather hat, shooting glasses;
and a Home Box Office unit were
also taken from the house. Steve
Pettit, a victim of the robbery,
comments, "I put my HBO box in
another brother 's apartment for
safekeeping over Thanksgiving
and it got stolen anyway.''
All brothers effected by the rob-

bery have Home Owner's Insurance and will hopefully be reimbused the total loss.

BU Computerizes the Fine Arts

ROSE ANN DICK
Voice Contributor
Because of the absence of Dr.
Percival Roberts, III, on sabbatical for the fall semester, the
Bloomsburg University Art Department has provided another opportunity to expose students to a
variety of art media. For the first
time students are experiencing the
fundamentals of computer
graphics and video art as fine arts
media. The course, Art Media, is
being taught by Ms. Megan Corwin
who has brought innovative application of video and computer art
to BU.
Corwin received her B.A. from
Eckerd College in Florida which
specializes in art and music. Her
graduate work took her to the
University of Wisconsin where she
completed her M.F.A. in metals,
video and computer art. Basically
a sculptor at heart Corwin integrates diverse art experience by
manipulating a talent ¦for design
with light and color. " Her experience with metals and sculpture
enables her to view video and computer art as sculptural space.
Through the interfusion of these
media Corwin creates a revised
technical whole; new images,

therefore, are made possible by
merging ageless artforms with
newer art techniques. Currently,
she is exploring the potential of
video and computer expressions involving her longheld interest in
theatre and dance.
"Combining media enables an
artist to reach a larger audience, "
says Corwin, "recent generations
are trained from birth to watch
screen, to visually absorb more information than previously more
sound-oriented groups.
Considering this, the video and computer artists are attempting to improve what the audience is subject
to watching. This goal, if realized,
will heighten audience awareness
about what is being watched," Ms.
Corwin adds.
Naturally questions arise when
any area of knowledge is changing
rapidly. Many artists, for example, are asking whether computer
generated art can be accepted as
legitimate fine art. They also wonder if creativity will remain intuitive when in a program
everything is specified in
mathematical terms. Artists are
reminded that new media rarely
replace other viable art forms but
rather enhance the range of an

established medium.
Stu Nagel, graphics professor of
BU Art Department has expressed
an interest in, computer art for
some time. He has encouraged his
students to explore the potential of
computer graphics as an artist
would attempt another medium for
the expression of his, or her personal aesthetic. Nagel believes
that the state of art in computer
graphics is in its infancy in its
current form. At present, Nagel
says, fine art aesthetics is still
housed in traditional artforms (i.e.
painting, drawing, sculpture, and
printmaking) .
Like printmaking, com-

puter graphics is a medium that is
accessible to the masses, it reflects
a potential as a medium for communication. At the same time the
computer invites the mathematical
thinker to become visually literate
and directly associated with
creative thought process. > By this
Nagel feels everyone can take advantage of computer media that is
specific to their respective concerns. As a contributor to the consciousness of society, the computer
artist, then, should search for
universal images which reflect a
balance between content and the
media used as great art always
does.

What Makes A
Resident Advisor?

TAMMY McNEELY
Voice Contributor
"Someone I respect. " "A
babysitter." "The cop." "A good
friend who helps me with my
problems and keeps me informed.''
"A bitch!" "A great guy who
knows what's going on." "A mom."
"The person who lets me in my
room when I'm locked out." These
are all answers to the question —
"Can you describe your resident
advisor in one sentence or less?"
The varied responses were derived
from a random phone survey of 20
men and 20 women currently living
in BU dormitories. But what does
being a good R.A. really mean?
How does one get, keep and cope
with the job?
In order to be considered as a
candidate for an R.Ap position an
applicant must meet several basic
requirements. He or she must have
lived one semester in a residence
hall at BU, maintain a minimum
2.25 grade-point average, and must
not currently be on disiplinary warning or probation. "The first thing I
do is check grades and disipline
records," says Linda Zyla, dean of
Columbia Hall and coordinator of
all BU R.A.s. "We usually lose
three or four applicants every
round due to inadequate grades/'

adds Zyla.
Prospective R.A.s must also be
willing to work for one academic
year , agree to particpate in Spring
and pre-school workshops, inservice training, and file a State
Grant-Basic Grant application.
"Leadership qualities, sensitivity,
assertiveness, independence, the
ability to make sound decisions and
accept responsibility, good
listening skills, and the ability to
motivte, are just a few qualities
that we look for in an R.A.," says
Zyla.
"Filling out the application is
just the tip of the iceberg," says
junior Marcie Woods, R.A. in
Lycoming Hall. Applicants must
also participate in an eight hour
workshop.
"At the workshop, applicants are
evaluated on problem-solving,
communicative ability and group
interaction," says Craig Funt , R.A.
at Luzerne Hall. "Some tough
questions are raised, such , as,
'What would you do as, an R.A., if
you walked into your best friend's
dorm room and caught him
drinking a beer? ' The decision isn't
an easy one."
Applicants must also complete
interviews with their present R*A.,

When you returned to school
from spring break last year and
your friends were bragging about
the "wild times" they had in Ft,
Lauderdale, did you feel as though
you missed out on all the fun? Embarrassed to tell your friends what
you did, or didn't do?
Well,
you don't have to feel like an outcast this year. Now's the time to
sign up for that ever so popular Ft.
Lauderdale trip !
Each year, Bloomsburg's Kehr
Union Travel Service, offers the
trip and last year , over 200 students
participated.
Senior Tony
Crouthamel, who went last year,
says, "It's the most incredible time
you'll ever have. Ft. Lauderdale is
like a stage and everyone is a performer." It's the only trip that is
sponsored by over 75 colleges.
Paul Abraham, part-time employee for the Travel Service, says,
"One word of caution to you overanxious partiers; those brochures
that are posted on the bulletin boards around campus that advertise
trips to Ft. Lauderdale, Bermuda
and the Bahamas are not affiliated
with BU at all." They're independent agents where you deal
on your own: and they don't offer

the same guarantees as the college
does."
The Kehr Union Travel Service is
sponsoring the officia l Ft. Lauderdale trip form the Travel Turf Wainwright Travel Service ,
Bethlehem, for the week of March
10-17. "We've been using this agency for the past eight years , and it's
the best quality trip for the money.
Also, Wainwright owns beach
property which is guaranteed to
students who have hotel reservations ," Maura Dunleavy,
another student employee of the
Kehr Union Travel Service says.
- Students can choose their lodging
from six different hotels. The hotel
costs vary according to the number
of people per room. Prices range
from $239-$359.
The complete
package deals include: round trip
air fare on a 747 jet service from
Philadelphia Airport, hotel accomodations for seven nights, parties nightly with free admission to
Big Daddy's Graffiti Lounge ( formerly Flanagans ) , a get acquainted cruise on the Paddle Queen if
you book your trip before Dec. 9.
Also included are all taxes and activities and tour escorts on
location.

Free Beds From IUP

(Continued from Page 7)

WILLIAM CHARLES VOROS

"Where are they taking our beds?" was the familiar cry as the men of
Luzerne Hall were awakened early on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving
by the voices of custodian workers and the banging noises caused by the
dismantling of beds.

Once hired, an R.A. must work
the desk at his or her dorm approximately two to five hours a
week, and be "on call" one day a

The reaction among residents in Luzerne was, to say the least, not
positive. "If I wanted to sleep on a cot I would have joined the army,"
grumbled one student. Another said , "If I knew l was going to live this
close to the floor, I would have brought my sleeping bag.''

Women s Basketball

Poor Second Half Fatal for BU

SARAH HACKFORTH
Staff Writer
A 25-0 second half stretch by the
visiting Lady Bisons of Bucknell
proved to be the downfall of the
women's basketball teain as they
dropped a 66-46 decision in their
season and home opener.
Despite losing three starters to
graduation, the Lady Huskies were
able to secure a one point lead at
half time 28-27, thanks in large part
to their two returning starters,
Jean Millen and Kris Zimmerman.
The sophomore duo combined for
over half of the Huskies scoring,
with Millen hitting for 16 points,
while Zimmerman had 11 markers.
Millenalso snagged a game high 16
rebounds.
While neither team could
establish control in the opening
stanza, the Bisons quickly took control in their second hah*. Led by
game high scorer Jane Meyer (26
points) and Karen Hume (12 points
and 9 boards) Bucknell broke the
seesaw battle wide C open.•¦' .' " The
visitors capitalized on numerous
BU errors to score 25 unanswered
points.
"It was a frustrating and
disastrous second half," said coach
Sue Hibbs. Execution of fundamentals was worse than the first
day of practice."
BucknelFs defense shutdown not
only the Huskies running game but
also throttled the BU inside game,

not allowing them to set any type of
offense into motion.
The young Huskies were also suffering from first game"jitters. "I'm
still optimistic and I think the team
is capable of much better play,"
stated Hibbs.
BU travels to the Immaculate
Tournament this Friday and Saturday where they will run into the
likes of nationally ranked
Maryland, Davis and Elkins, and
the host Immaculate squad.

A Statis tical Analys is of the 1983 Grid Seasort

By MIKE ALBRIGHT
Assistant Sports Editor
This year's version of the Bloomsburg University football team
finished the season at 5-5; their first
non-losing season since 1978. Last
year's team ended their campaign
at 1-8. .
Many people are wondering what
made this year's team so much better than last year 's team.
Statistically, both teams were virtually equal. However, the 1983
team's penchant for the big play as
well as their better overall effectiveness made the biggest difference between the two teams.
An in-depth analysis of the two
teams' statistics reveals the
following:
Rushing: The total amount of
rushing attempts and yards were
both up from last year but the
average yards per attempt
remained the same. However, the
biggest change occurred in the
number of rushing touchdowns, up
from 4 to 12. Vernon Rochester was
the leading rusher in 1982 with 414
yards. He was also leading the 1983
team until he was injured in the
Mansfield game. The rushing load
was left to freshman Jeff Flickner,
who finished the season with 804

yards. Defensively, the 1983 team
gave up more yards on more attempts but the opponent's average
per rush remained the same. The
touchdowns given up via the rush
were diminished from 18to 10.
Passing : The passing stats were
down slightly from 1982 with the exception of completion percentage
which was up from 41.7 to 47.4 percent. Dick Klingerman led the 1982
team in passing, going 73-155 for
806 yards, 5 TD's and 12 interceptions. After some early
season injuries , Mike Glovas stepped in to lead the 1983 team in
passing, going 80-178 for 890 yards.
4 TD's and 15 INT's. The 1983
Huskies ' passing defense improved
in almost every aspect ,
statistically. They gave up less yardage and fewer TD's while
allowing the opponents to complete
only 50.6 percent of their passes
compared to 52.9 percent in 1982.
Their interception total increased
also. This year they pilfered 18
enemy passes , which was up from
the 13in 1982.
Special Teams : This year 's improved defense resulted in more
punt returns for a higher average
and less kickoff returns for about
the same average. Bob Gabel's

punting duties increased as he punted 11 more times this season but
his average dropped slightly from
36.1 to 35.5 yards per punt.
Placekicker Rick Farris doubled
his field goals from 3 in 1982 to 6 in
1983.
Receiving : This year's receiving
corps was led by Kevin Grande who
caught 20 passes for a 15.5 yard
average. The majority of the 1982
team's receptions were hauled in
by Joe Dowd (30) and Mike Blake
(29). This year there were six
players in double figures with
receptions which showed the balance in the passing game. After Grande came Jim Weisenburger (18) ,
Stan Kucewicz (17), John Kelley
(12) , Ken Liebel, and Jeff Flickner
(11).
Scoring : The 1983 team scored
more points (142-85) for a higher
average per game (14.2-9.3). Their
team defense also improved as
they gave up only 150 points compared with 224 in 1982. Their defensive average dropped nearly ten
points from 24.9 to 15 points a
game. The 1983 defense got better
in the second half of each game
while the offense improved in the
4th quarter. This is evidence of the
team's ability to make the big play
that helped them to their 5-5
season.
Looking at the 1983 team as the
season progressed, it is obvious
that the team started slowly but

came on strongly to improve in
almost every category. After four
games, the team's rushing average
was 2.0 and their passing average
was 10.0. In the last six games, the
rushing average improved to 3.18
and the passing average jumped to
12.3. Although the defense got more
porous in the last six games when it
came to the rush (giving up 3.7 yards in the first four games for 679
yards and allowing 4.04 yards per
rush in the last six games for 1104
yards) , they remained even with
regard to the pass. The team
averaged only"9 points a game in
the first four games but boosted
that average to 17.67 in the last six
games. The ground game imrpoved immensely, only scoring 3
rushing TD's through the Mansfield game but improving to nine
in the last six games.
All of this points to the effectiveness of the team as the
season progressed as well as to the
overall improvement of this year's
team compared with last year's
squad. Although many of this
year 's stats occurred during the
Huskies ' four game winning
streak, the improvement was a
marked one and should be a
positive factor for next year. If the
1984 Husky squad improves as
much as the 1983 team did, George
Landis should almost be assured of
winning season and possibly a

the end helped to overcome the
Monarch's efforts. King 's did come
within seven with 2:09 to go but the
Huskies broke their press for easy
baskets, offsetting their comeback
efforts.
Glenn Noack led the Huskies with
24 points. Shane Planutis and
Barry Francisco added 18 points
each to help the BU cause. Planutis
led all rebounding with 13. The
Huskies shot 45.4 percent from the
field and 75 percent from the foul
line.
This was King 's first game of the
season as well. The Monarch's first
year coach Ken Atkins started four
freshmen and one junior, so look
for King 's to be tough in future
meetings with the Huskies.
ALLENTOWN COLLEGE
The Huskies defeated Allentown
College 71-51to go 2-0 on the season.
BU jumped to a 6-0 lead while the
Centaurs were getting unracked.
The Huskies were holding the Centaurs to only one shot on offense
with some fine defensive rebounding. The Huskies seemed more
patient on offensive than they did in
the King's game. Barry Francisco
seemed to be forcing shots in his
quest to top the 1000 point plateau.
He needed three to attain 1,000 but

he was 1-8 from the field before he
canned two free throws at the 1:22
mark of the first half. BU ended the
first 20 minutes with a 33-30 lead.
The Huskies extended their lead
to six points but Allentown came
back to tie at the 15:00 mark. Allentown 's half-court trapping defense
forced the Huskies into mistakes
which allowed the Centaurs to
come back. Todd McLaughlin 's two
outside jumpers midway through
the half kept the Huskies in the
game as nothing seemed to be
working for Coach Chronister's
team. BU eventually came around
while Allentown seemed to get cold
and took a seven point lead with
about five minutes to go in the contest. Allentown began breaking
down on defense allowing BU to
score some easy buckets late in the
game. Allentown began taking
long, quick shots in an effort to get
back in the game. These shots were
not falling however and the
Huskies' overall talent buried the
Centaurs as Chronister substituted
heavily with slightly under two
minutes to go. At this time the lead
was 12 and the subs built the lead to
20 as the game ended. The high
scorer in the game was John
Luciano of Allentown with 24 points
but no other Centaur player was in
double figures. Shane Planutis led
BU with 23 points and Glen Noack
contributed 16. Planutis was the

ahead 67-64.
Rocket forward Kevin Williams
keyed the comeback with a jumper
at the 2:08 mark to give SR a 68-67
lead. The Huskies then committed
oh a costly double-dribble violation
at the 1:44 mark. Williams connected on the Rockets next
possession to up the lead to 70-67
with 1:07 left. Glenn Noack hit on a
follow-up to close the gap to one
with 46 seconds remaining. The
Huskies then intentionally fouled
Troy Mild who missed both foul
shots. On their next possession the
Huskies made their most
damaging turnover when a wide
open Wes Wright could not handle a
Glenn Noack pass with 25 seconds
remaining.
Slippery Rock then cashed in on
the fine foul shooting abilities of
Mike McConnell. McConnell hit 2
foul shots with 22 seconds left to
make the score 72-^69. Glenn Noach
hit on the opposite end with a 30foot jumper to close the gap to one
again but two more McConnell free
throws with 10 seconds left iced the
game for the Rockets.
The Rockets were paced by Troy
Mild's fine inside play nd his game
high 25 points. Kevin Williams added 23 for Slippery Rock who upped
their record to 2-0.
Bloomsburg got yet another fine
performancefrom their sophomore
forwards.Shane; Planutis; (12 of 19)
who hit for 24 points and Glenn
Noack (8 of 14) who sank 18 points
for the Huskies.

leading rebounder again for the
second straight game with nine.
The Huskies ended the game
shooting 49.1 percent from the field
and 78.5 percent from the charity
stripe, while holding Allentown to
38.9 percent from the field and 41.6
percent from the free-throw line.
SLIPPERY ROCK
Costly turnovers late in the game
coupled with the lack of strong
leading point spelled defeat for the
Huskies 74-73, in a Saturday afternoon contest with the Rockets
over the Thanksgiving Holiday at
Nelson Fieldhouse.
BU held a slim 38-34 half time
lead but never could grab control in
the second half. Slippery Rock started their move with three minutes
remaining in the game and BU

Pg. 9: Five Husky gridders were named to
the conference all-star team.

BU at 2-1 Desp ite Inconsiste ncy

MARTY HASENFUS
and
MIKE ALBRIGHT
Asst. Sports Editors
The Bloomsburg University
Basketball team opened its season
at 2-1 with wins over King 's College
and Allentown College while losing
to Slippery Rock.
The Huskies have had superior
talent compared to their opponents
but have not played up to their
potential due to a lack of leadership
and inexperience primarily at the
point guard-position.
"No one has shown any confidence at the point," stated coach
Charlie Chronister, who has been
disappointed with his team 's play
through the first three games.
If the Huskies are to be dominate
in the conference, they must
establish a good point guard and
more aggressive rebounding
before they begin playing the contenders in the PSAC Conference.

Sophomores Glenn Noack and
Shane Planutis have turned in outstanding efforts in the first three
contests while Barry Francisco,
who is looked upon to do most of the
scoring this year, has gotten off to
his usual slow start.
KING'S COLLEGE
Bloomsburg defeated King 's
College 89-78 to win their, first game
in the 1983-84 campaign. The
Huskies started slowly, missing
early shots and committing turnovers, while trading baskets with
the Monarchs. The Huskies were
showing first game jitters as they
were forcing shots and showing a
lack of patience on the offensive
end of the floor. Noack led the team
to a seven point halftime bulge (4033) as he hit for 14.
Neither team could find the
range as they started slowly again
in the second half. A Barry Frncisco blocked shot and subseuquent
pass to Glenn Noack for the easy

bucket seemed to ignite the
Huskies and put them up by 11. In
the next four minutes, the Huskies
added seven points to their lead.
BU eventually built their ad-

vantage to 20 before King's could
stop them. King's then went to fullcourt pressure in an effort to come
back. BU's superb foul shooting at

Fiorvanti Named Outstanding Wrestler

Huskies Nip Virg inia to Claim Own Tourney

John McFadden 's decision m the
190 pound final gave the Huskies
the winning points to capture the
Bloomsburg Invitational, shading
the- University of Virginia by one
point.
Coach Roger Sanders' Huskies
had two other individual champions in juniors Nelson Fritz (134)
and Tom Fiorvnti (150) and

finalists in all but the heavyweight
division.
Fiorvanti was selected as the outstanding 'wrestler in the two-day
tourney.
The final standings saw BU with
169.75 points, Virginia 168.75, Penn
St. 73.50, Franklin and Marshall
63.75, Bucknell 32, Duke 31.75,
Southern Connecticut 31.50, and

Tom Fiorvanti applies pressure on an opponent during the BU Invitational wrestling tourney. Fiorvanti
captured the 1501b. class as well as the title of Outstanding Wrestler for the tournament

Kutztown 28.50.
McFadden decisioned Mark
DeGennaro of Franklin and Marshall 9-6 to top thej Cavaliers whose
heavyweight Roger Mello had
already won his championship
match by default.
' Fritz, a junior, won his championship with a 6-4 decision over
John Parr of Virginia and Fiorvnti ,
who was red shirted last season,
gained his title with a pin of PSU's
Jeff Rosenberger at the 1:58 mark.
Second place finishers for the
Huskies were Rob Rapsey, who
dropped a 5-4 loss at 118, co-captain
Glenn Walter, who lost 9-5 at 126,
Dan Comfort, who lost 9-7 at 142,
Dan Klingerman, who was shutout
12-0 at 158, Darrin Evans, who lost
15-9 at 167, and Bruce Wallace, who
lost 12-4 at 177.
Although McFadden 's match turned the tournament in the Huskies"
favor , Virginia had six individual
champs and Sanders said afterward, 'We won' the tournament
with some good wrestling in the
early rounds. "
"Those major ,and superior
decisions along with pins gave us a

good lead, but going into the finals I
didn't know if it was enough to hang
on. I'm elated by the hustle and intensity of the kids, and I'm particularly pleased by the improvement of the whole team since
practice started. John's ( McFadden ) win was obviously a big
one in the end, but some other
people . had outstanding tournaments.
"Nelson Fritz did a great job by
winning a tough weight class. I
think he is finally coming of age as
one of our team leaders." Fritz
used a reversal at the . buzzer to
overcome a 4-3 deficit and then got
a point for riding time to win 6-4.
Sanders went on to praise his 150
pound champ, Fiorvanti, "It is obvious that eveyone thinks that Tom
Fiorvanti had a great tournament
because ;he was a unanimous
choice for outstanidng wrestler."
The junior pinned three of the four
opponents he faced.
The Huskies travel to Lehigh this
weekend for the two Sheridan Invitational.
